Chapter 1: The Scientist Who Walked Away
Dr. Elias Grayson was once Revenant's lead geneticist. He defected before the first clones were ever deployed, carrying with him knowledge that could have unraveled the entire operation. But where did he go? And why did he never come forward?
As Aria and her team prepared their final strike, Elias was already in motion, playing a game of his own, ensuring that the world would never fall into Revenant's hands again.

Chapter 2: The Spy Who Never Switched Sides
Among Revenant's ranks, not all betrayals were obvious. Agent Talia Morgan worked as a double agent, feeding false intelligence to both sides. But when the final war came, she was nowhere to be found.
What was her true allegiance? And did she ever truly leave Revenant's grip?

Chapter 3: The Lost City of Archives
There was a place no one spoke of—a digital vault hidden deep beneath the Arctic ice, containing every secret Revenant ever held. Layla once whispered about it, but no one believed it truly existed.
But someone found it. And someone made sure that it would never be used again.

Chapter 4: The Final Clone
The world believed the cloning project was shut down. But in the ruins of the Tokyo facility, there was one pod still active. One final creation, never meant to see the light of day.
Who was it? And what would happen if they woke up?

Chapter 5: The One Who Knew It All
Before the war ended, before Aria ever took control, an unknown voice left a message on her encrypted server. The voice knew everything—the war, the betrayals, even the choice she would make in the end.
The message was simple: "You are not the first. And you won't be the last."
Who sent it? And what did it mean?

Epilogue: Some Shadows Never Fade
The war ended. Revenant fell. But in those final 30 days, the world changed in ways no one could have predicted.
The days leading up to the last battle were a blur of deception, blood, and impossible choices. Aria and her team moved like ghosts, striking from the shadows, dismantling Revenant's last defenses. Every time they thought they had won, another piece of the puzzle emerged, more sinister than the last.
Zayn nearly lost his life in Geneva. Layla cracked the final code that led them to the heart of Revenant's last facility—only to find it was a trap. The war had been engineered to ensure Revenant's survival. But in those last desperate hours, Aria did something no one expected.
She didn't destroy Revenant.
She became it.
Not out of ambition. Not out of power. But because there was no other way. The world wasn't ready for chaos, and someone had to steer the storm.
The final moments played out in a silent room where the last true Revenant leaders knelt before her, waiting for judgment. She gave them none. Instead, she walked away, letting history decide.
Now, the world believes it is free. But in the deepest corners of the intelligence world, whispers remain. They say the real power never left. It simply changed hands.
And Aria?
She watches from the shadows, waiting for the moment the world needs her again.
Because power never truly disappears.
It just hides.
